This article was previously published under Q85186

SUMMARY

An MS-DOS-based application that has been added to the LOAD= line of the WIN.INI file may not have the same icon as the same MS-DOS application started from Windows version 3.1 desktop.

MORE INFORMATION

In Windows 3.1, when an MS-DOS-based application is minimized it retains the same icon as portrayed on the desktop.

If the same MS-DOS-based application is started from the LOAD= line and from the desktop, and if both are minimized, the one started from the LOAD= line may have a different icon than the one started from the desktop.
